triplets switching free throw shooters
This is making the rounds. Brothers having the other shoot the free throws.

Perfect opportunity to assess a T for "knowingly attempting a free throw or accepting a foul to which the player was not entitled."
That is, assuming we memorized the number of the correct shooter. |

Hilarious Crazy Teenage Hijinks And Shenanigans ...
Reminds me of the Patty Duke Show (ABC, 1963).
https://youtu.be/qQTqKcojrVY "Where Cathy adores the minuet, the Ballet Russe and crêpes Suzette, our Patty loves to rock 'n' roll, a hot dog makes her lose control. What a wild duet! Still, they're cousins, identical cousins and you'll find, they laugh alike, they walk alike, at times they even talk alike. You can lose your mind, when cousins are two of a kind." |
Hypothetical
A1 shoots the first free throw and makes it. Officials realize A1 shouldn't be shooting. T on A1. Does A2 get to attempt the first free throw again? |
Correctable Error ...
Quote:
ART. 1 Officials may correct an error if a rule is inadvertently set aside and results in: c. Permitting a wrong player to attempt a free throw. ART. 2 In order to correct any of the officials’ errors listed in Article 1, such error must be recognized by an official no later than during the first dead ball after the clock has properly started. |

This is one of our “local” schools. I’ve never had them in basketball but have had them many times in softball. They are just outside our association but we do have them in tournaments. Thankfully, I don’t think this was our associations officials on this game.
Word is these boys have perfected this and dad (their varsity coach) turns a blind eye. Most surmise he coaches them to do it. Our state office has stated they can’t do anything about the game results, which I understand, but it would be nice to see some type of punishment, several game suspensions for the players and coach, which would hopefully send the message to knock off the crap. But as of now, there has been nothing handed down |

If there's a plus side to this, officials that have this team for the remainder of the season may be more aware and vigilant in identifying the proper free throw shooter. |

In the hypothetical, both players engaged in unethical conduct. If you assess a player technical (10-4-6), do you give it to the FT shooting triplet? To the fouled triplet? To both (false multiple foul) for their complicity in the unsporting act? Or do you assess a single team technical (10-2-4)?

I suppose it's like the "play" where one player lifts another. 10-4-6 also forbids both climbing upon and lifting a teammate. Theoretically, you could charge them both. I think the last time the climbing/lifting came up, the general consensus on this forum was to pick one (likely the climber).
My gut is what Bob said. The list in 10-4-6 is not all encompassing ("includes, but not limited to"). Both players are complicit in this deceit. But, 10-4-6-f expressly mentions "knowingly attempting a free throw". So, I'm likely charging that player and moving on. They will get the message. |

You don't need two T's here to send a message that you're not falling for this crap. |
